had my doubts but i let them out
you are the drought
"I would have thought the compass was, yet here we are," I fire back, unimpressed with his playful banter. Yeah, like hell he's getting away with that shit. Fuck you, Sunny, you're not done with your penance yet. Not until I say you are, and you will know when that happens, believe me.
The comment about my father does earn him some points, a sharp and wolfish smile crossing my lips as I lean across the counter. "Hmm, you're not wrong." The old man wouldn't be taken in by anything, least of all imaginary monsters trying to sheak into a bar. Fuck if I don't miss him, though, ornery and ridiculous as he may be. I can see him now, standing there, a sawed- off shotgun in his hands. 'Let 'em come,' he'd jeer at the door. 'I'll show the fuckers true Korofi steel.
And what say I? I say I miss my gun. I say I miss when I knew what we were fighting, when I could see our enemies and it wasn't just ghosts and loss and shadows and infidelity. "I say it almost makes me miss it," I reply flatly, looking away. "At least there I knew what I was fighting. And who I could trust." A low blow, pointed at his fuck up? Maybe, but I'm still salty about it, and I'll be angry just as long as I like.
